Abington ROC post 25 Group Ayr

Ok first report ... so here goes. Bit of a double first in fact as this is my first post in the Ayr group. A wee jaunt down south last week allowed for a quick stop off here, would have liked to have done a few more while in the area but time didn't allow.
Anyway on with the report
Not a lot seems to have changed since last archived report on this post by King Elvis which in a way is nice as this remains a fine wee post free from flooding or vandals. Still a couple of interesting bits and pieces such as the kettle come pan :-)

Externally the step is becoming dislodged as is the apron and the forward ventilation shaft seems to be in a slightly worse state than the 2009 report. Hatch reamins in good working order with scottish t bar

Any suggestions for the concrete plnth with socket in the ground a few meters from the post?

Thanks for taking the time to read if you get this far :-) any feedback welcome

its about the size of a paving slab (roughly 2 and a half to 3 foot) looks as if it was some kind of footing for something? but could be totally random and not connected to the post. Never seen anything like it before.
